30-min scope review, access list, data request checklist.

FAQs
Yes—clients use our report and risk register to satisfy common payer and security questionnaires. If they require extra artifacts, we’ll map what’s missing.
A single, discrete change (e.g., enable MFA, enforce encryption policy, harden a VPN). Larger projects (e.g., full email migration) are scoped separately.
We provide templates and gap notes. We can customize policies as an add-on if you don’t have them.
Remote by default; onsite available in the NY area on request.
Disclaimer: HIPAA compliance is a shared responsibility across people, process, and technology. This audit assesses controls and identifies gaps; ultimate compliance depends on your organization’s continued implementation and enforcement.
